Thanks to China, Our Ethnic Groups are Losing Their Lives
There was a news conference at Thai-Burma border area where Karin Ethnic rebel commander Phado Lay Law Saw met regional reporters. Here is the testimony of human right abuses by the Burmese government troops.
Military troops went to Lae Wa village and destroyed the food and all household stuff of the villagers. Their main goal is to control the territory and to carry out the genocide. In the middle of this year, the military troops entered a peasants field in Lae Wa village where villagers were working. Everyone run away, but one was unfortunately caught. They took out his eyes and cut his tong. His body was found two days later.
Another incident in Jun, 2007; in Wa Kho Do village, there were five Karen villagers caught by the army, three were shot dead on the spot. The other two other villagers are tied up by the ropes and being used as human mine sweepers. After going a while in the jungle, a soldier behind mine sweepers stepped on the mine and died on the spot."
From the third week of November, 187 military army groups spreading over ethnic areas, mostly in Karen State and Shan state। Many reliable sources in border areas also confirmed the news of four hundred military trucks sent by the Chinese government. Numbers of battles were already carried out in different areas and some casualties on both sides.
